• Version reviewed: Focus CD Cover Maker 1.9

Though blessed with a pleasing design, this CD-labeling app lacks the flexibility and features to trump its numerous competitors. The Mac-styled interface is colorful and easy to use, with clearly labeled icons for all functions. Though it didn't take us long to figure out how to design a CD cover, we would have appreciated a step-by-step wizard to walk us through the process. You can make a CD case with either the program's bundled images or you own pictures, though you can't perform even simple edits such as rotation. Focus Cover CD Maker lets you add text, track info, times, and dates in a variety of fonts, as well as alter the background color, though we wished it could automatically enter song names by connecting to an online database. However, this app's biggest misstep is that it only supplies a layout option for a front cover, totally omitting templates for back cover, booklet, and CD label. Largely because of that oversight, other CD-labeling apps clearly have the edge.

  "Pros and Cons of Focus CD Cover Maker"

  by sway7426 on July 26, 2005

  Pros: The product doesnt print anything on the cover except for what you put on it (no product info).

  Cons: I havent found a way to import existing cd info, you have to manually type the track lists.
